Yes, fingernails do regrow after being cut or damaged. The growth occurs from the nail matrix, which is located under the base of the nail. Typically, fingernails grow at a rate of about 1/8 inch (3 mm) per month, although growth can vary depending on factors like age, health, and nutrition. It usually takes several months for a nail to fully regrow after losing it.

Why nails don't have blood circulatory system?

Nails are made up of keratin like hair. The blood supply for the fingernails and toenails is at the base or growth area. If the base of the nails is damaged then the entire nail will turn black and die and fall off. If the damage is not permanent a new nail will grow from the base. Fingernails take about 5 months to grow from base to fingertip, toenails take about 1 year to totally regrow.
